dropped a fuel rail bolt down under the SC. Do I need to take the SC off now? I cant even see the bolt in think its directly under the SC.

It's worth a shot before removing your s/c. Think about it, it's a metal bolt. If your skeptic go pick one up at any wal mart or the parts store and try it on some of the other bolts. I keep one in my tool box at all times for just such an occasion
$10 max.
